The answer is D. An anion is a negatively charged ion, which means it has accepted an extra electron (s) from a donor ion (cation). To add an electron, energy has to be released so that the electron can be less excited and go back to its orbital level. The released energy is equivalent to the energy required to remove the electron from its orbital level.
I think the thalamus is the gateway to the cerebral cortex. Thalamus is a small structure within the brain located just above the brain stem between the cerebral cortex and the mid brain and has extensive nerve connections to both. Its main function is to relay motor and sensory signals to the cerebral cortex. A sensory impulse travels from the body surface towards the thalamus, which receives it as a sensation, which is then passed onto the cerebral cortex for interpretation as touch, pain or temperature.
Answer:
B. Two functions of carbohydrates are structural support and transferring genetic information
Explanation:
Carbohydrates are synthesized in green plants, thanks to photosynthesis, in which carbon dioxide (CO2) and water are converted into glycides, with energy provided by light. The energy stored in the glucose molecule during photosynthesis is released in the degradation (catabolism) of glucose, producing water and CO2.
From the point of view of metabolism, the main function of carbohydrates in plant organisms is to provide energy and provide structural support. This can be seen in the question above, because we can see that in spring, when stem growth is at its fastest pace, cellulose production rates increase in some plants, while in months with less sunlight, the level of starch decreases in some plants.
The number of people who are carriers (heterozygous) for PKU if there are 33 of the 300,000 people in Corpus Christi, TX, have PKU is 15. Heterozygous or also called as zygosity refers to having the unlike genes or different genes.
Answer:
Methemoglobinemia
Explanation:
Methemoglobinemia (also known as the blue baby syndrome), is a condition with multiple etiologies which is associated with the lack of oxygen in the blood. This syndrome affects the function of red blood cells by altering the amount of hemoglobin protein, which carries and distributes oxygen to the body. Methemoglobinemia may be acquired by exposure to drugs and/or toxins. In this regard, it has been shown that high levels of nitrates in the water may induce this syndrome in infants.
